Lambda Is Using Obsolete Runtime

Overview

Identify deprecated Lambda runtimes. If you have functions operating on a runtime that will become obsolete within the next 60 days, Lambda will notify you via email. In such cases, it's essential to prepare by migrating your functions to a supported runtime. However, be aware that in certain situations, like security issues requiring a backward-incompatible update or software lacking long-term support (LTS), advance notice might not be feasible. Once a runtime is deprecated, Lambda could retire it at any time by disabling invocation. Deprecated runtimes won't receive security updates or technical support. It's crucial to test new runtimes as they become available and implement them in your production environment as soon as possible. This will help you stay up-to-date and ensure a smooth transition away from deprecated runtimes.
